Report: 49ers’ Gamble will interview for Rams’ GM job

Niners director of player personnel Tom Gamble will interview with the Rams for their general manager opening Tuesday, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Gamble has ties to first-year St. Louis coach Jeff Fisher. Gamble worked in the Eagles personnel department from 1988-94 and Fisher was Philadelphia’s defensive coordinator from 1988-90. Gamble’s father, Harry, previously served as the Eagles’ general manager and president.

Gamble, who just finished his 24th NFL season, was promoted to his current position when 49ers general manager Trent Baalke assumed his current role after the 2010 season. Previously the Niners director of pro personnel for seven years, Gamble assumed more college scouting responsibilities when he was promoted.

From 1998-2004, Gamble was as a college scout with the Colts under executive Bill Polian.
